Our flat is beautifully furnished and we were really impressed by the quality of it when we arrived. Would recommend

GoogleLoc8me have always been great throughout my time at university. I've only ever heard good things from my friends too.
The way the office is set up is fantastic, split up with property managers and letting agents. From my first experience with them until now it has been smooth sailing and everyone has been so so helpful with everything from signing the contract to dealing with maintenance issues that can arise in any house.
I would recommend loc8me to anybody in Loughborough looking for accommodation, either student or locals. The best agency by far and would give them more than 5 stars if i could.

GoogleDid not have a good experience with this company.
We had multiple issues with the house such as no heating and no hot water as well as problems with electrical supplies. When reported it took a long time for them to be resolved. We were also charged for the heating to be fixed and when we asked why there was no justification. Our deposits have been taken and when questioned about it they have not responded. They are charging us for repairs on the house that we’re not cause because of us but instead due to the fact the construction on the house was rushed. Don’t live with locate me.

GoogleDREADFUL, AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
Had a terrible year renting with loc8me, would give 0 stars if i could. The following are some of the main issues we encountered (there was not enough space to list them all)...
Staff were rude, repairs took forever, they gave workmen a key and told them they could let themselves into our hours even though we stressed numerous times that we did not give consent for this to happen. Had one member of staff illegally enter the property in order to try and argue with one of my house mates. Additionally, they tried to blackmail us threatening to email our guarantors regarding drugs in the property (none were ever seen/found) when we refused to pay for scrapes on a toilet cistern lid that we had not caused. Then at the end of the tenancy they tried to keep the £750 deposit and bill us an additional £500, when we asked for invoices and receipts they suddenly removed over £500 for various 'admin errors' on their side. Been an absolute joke of a year, i have not enjoyed my time with loc8me, i will not be renting with them again and i strongly recommend others to look elsewhere.
Additionally, several of their 5 star reviews on google are written by their own staff (highly illegal). For example, here are some written by Siobhan Stretton (see photos attached) claiming that she is a student apparently renting at four different loc8me locations across the country at one time, when she in fact she actually works there (see final image, a screenshot from their website)

GoogleFab experience living with loc8 me, any problems were dealt with efficiently, quickly and to the best of standards. And the price was so cheap! If I didn't have a family home now I'd still be renting through them!

GoogleI had a great experience from start to finish with loc8me. Sophie was extremely helpful, I had never rented before and she took the time to explain the process and made sure I was happy and comfortable with everything. Sophie was very professional, but her bright personality made me feel like I was talking to a friend. Would definitely recommend.

GoogleIf there was an option to select NO star...It would have been selected. What an embarrassment and shambles of a business. From rude, manipulative staff, to a house without heating in the coldest months of winter, a gas leak, windows unable to close, bug infestations and WAY more.
i do NOT recommend LOC8 ME even to those desperate for a house. Please go elsewhere & do not give your money to this money hungry company.

GoogleHad nothing but issues with them, would give zero stars if possible.
started with them lying about what was included in the tenancy, unacceptable. Any questions we had they told us to contact elsewhere. They never turned up for arranged viewings, however after asking them to arrange one for a different time as i was ill in bed they turned up and let themselves in anyway.
They have since lied again and complained to our landlord about multiple untrue things as reasons for why the property has not yet been rented for next year yet; one of which being we “complain about maintenance issues constantly” despite us actually never having any maintenance issues so have not contacted them at all! Absolutely ridiculous, please dont bother renting with them. Also, a lot of the high reviews on here are actually from their own staff... yet more lies.
